Um, sysfs _is_ in the kernel already.
As for the progress of libsysfs, yes, there are some people working on
it. Hopefully they will release something publicly soon (hint, hint,
hint...)

It will use the /sbin/hotplug hook that the current linux-hotplug
release uses. Does that explain what you are asking?
And there is already a version of udev "released" it's on the kernel.org
site if you want to play with it.

Most of the work has been on the OLS presentation lately, but after OLS
a lot more time will be available to work on it.
If there's any part of udev that you want to help out on right now, feel
free to let me know.
